COFFEE APPRETIATION: BO'S COFFEE

OUR COFFEE INDUSTRY

There's nothing wrong with supporting international coffee shops. I am one of those people who enjoy the casual Starbucks Frap. But one thing I realized when I attended this event in SM City (New Branch of Bo's), is that we should also support our country's coffee industry.
Well, It is comforting to know that Bo's Coffee (a coffee shop that originated in Cebu), is joining a cause to promote the Philippine coffee industry.

COFFEE ORIGINS

Coffee beans are named after the place where they originated. It all started out with the idea of showcasing and using Philippine Coffee Origins Arabica beans in their coffees to help out local coffee farmers.
The concept branched out to promoting places, culture, and merchandise to support tourism, homegrown brands, local talent, and Filipino creativity. He then realized that travelers are important conduits and agents to this endeavor.
SAGADA: Sweet, nutty, and well-balanced, with hints of chocolate and fresh tobacco.
Nestled in the center of the Cordillera region in the northern part of the Philippines, the town of Sagada is a popular destination for travelers who are either thrill seekers or nature lovers because of its majestic mountains and natural attractions.
